We're divided on whether Nike's "Gold Digging" shirt, which the company says "uses a phrase in an ironic way that is relevant given it was released just as the world focused on the success of female athletes," is problematic — especially since it's only available in women's sizes. Have we really come far enough in terms of gender equality that it's totally cool for a massive corporation to joke about women athletes being gold diggers? Or is it just an "ironic" reappropriation of the phrase?
